Die klinische Studie NCT07067658 (ME-HF) ist eine interventionsstudie zur Untersuchung von Herzinsuffizienz und hat den Status offene rekrutierung. Die Studie startete am 18. Dezember 2025 und soll 300 Teilnehmer aufnehmen. Durchgeführt von Heartfelt Technologies ist der Abschluss für 31. Juli 2027 geplant. Die Daten von ClinicalTrials.gov wurden zuletzt am 31. Dezember 2025 aktualisiert.
Kurzbeschreibung
This study will evaluate the Heartfelt device, a novel, passive monitoring system that detects early signs of fluid build-up in patients (oedema) with heart failure by measuring changes in foot and lower leg volume through capture of 3D images. The trial will assess whether this device, when added to standard NHS care, improves quality of life and reduces heart failure-related events compared to standard care alone.
Ausführliche Beschreibung
Heart failure often causes fluid build-up in the legs and lungs, leading to symptoms like swelling and breathlessness. Spotting these signs early is important to help prevent worsening health and hospital admissions. While patients are encouraged to monitor their weight and symptoms, this can be hard to keep up with.

The study will involve 300 participants from at least 15 NHS hospitals and GP practices across the U...

ExperimentellEnhanced Standard Care + Heartfelt Device
Heartfelt device's camera-based system passively measures foot and leg swelling each day as participants walk past it. Patients in this experimental control arm will not receive health alerts from the Heartfelt device, though data will still be passively collected. Patients will also be provided with the British Heart Foundation patient booklet to improve their understanding and self-monitoring of the disease.
Installation of Heartfelt Device
Device installed in the patient's home and capturing foot volume data which are processed in the cloud.
Erweiterte Standardversorgung
Patients with heart failure are advised to weigh daily and to report weight increase to their clinician. They should also report changes in breathlessness, tiredness and other symptoms associated with heart failure decompensation. At the start of the study, they will be reminded (or told) about the importance of self-checks and will be handed a patient booklet (from the British Heart Foundation) to standardise patien...Mehr anzeigen
Fragebögen
Patients are presented with one or more optional questionnaires (some validated, some bespoke)
Heartfelt device alerting system
The Heartfelt device sends alerts on the active comparator arm to the patients directly (audio-visual alert on the device, and app alerts), carers and/or medical professionals.
Aktives VergleichspräparatEnhanced Standard Care (Control)
In addition to standard care activities, participants have the Heartfelt device at home. During this arm, data is captured without sending health alerts or measurement data to the patient, carers and clinicians. Patients will also be provided with the British Heart Foundation patient booklet to improve their understanding and self-monitoring of the disease.

Hauptergebnismessungen
ErgebnismessungBeschreibung der MessungZeitrahmen
Composite Clinical Events
Unplanned hospital attendance (clinic, emergency, or admission) or death due to heart failure, cardiovascular, respiratory, or renal causes. Recurrent events will be included and adjudicated, providing a comprehensive measure of clinical deterioration over 12 months.
Over 12-months period.
Health-Related Quality of Life (EQ-5D-5L)
Patient-reported quality of life measured using EQ-5D-5L, collected at baseline and follow-up (3, 6, 9, 12 months), with primary analysis at 12 months. This validated instrument captures overall health status across five domains and includes a visual analogue scale. * Measured using the EQ-5D-5L index * Collected at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. * Primary time point: 12 months. EQ-5D-5L responses will be converted to utility scores on a scale from -0.59 to 1, where 1 represents the best health state, using the UK EQ-5D-5L value set. Patients with at least two or more utility scores during follow-up will be included in the analysis.
Collected at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months
Nebenergebnismessungen
ErgebnismessungBeschreibung der MessungZeitrahmen
Days Lost to Hospitalisation or Death
Total number of days lost due to hospitalisation for cardiovascular, respiratory, or renal conditions, or due to all-cause mortality.
Over 12-months period.
Daily Data Availability
Proportion of days with successful data capture from the Heartfelt device and weighing scales, based on device-generated records or contemporaneous self-report.
Over 12-months period.
Guideline-Recommended Medication Score
Adherence to guideline-recommended heart failure medications will be assessed using a guideline-recommended medication score, calculated at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months and averaged across these time points. The score is based on the number of eligible medication classes prescribed, with 1 point assigned per class (e.g., ACEi/ARB/ARNI, beta-blocker, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist \[MRA\]). The score ranges from 0 to 3, with 3 being the optimal medication score. The score is adjusted for patient eligibility: will be calculated only for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
Over 12-months period.
All-Cause Hospitalisations
Number of hospitalisations from any cause, analysed as recurrent events and adjusted for the competing risk of death.
Over 12-months period.
Loss of Independence or Mortality
Composite measure of new admission to a long-term care facility or all-cause mortality.
During the 12-month trial period.
Death and Cause of Death
Classification of all deaths recorded during the trial as heart failure-related, other cardiovascular, or non-cardiovascular causes, based on clinical records.
During 12-months trial period.
